It won't be surprising at all but I'm gonna be sad as heck when Brock Jensen doesn't get drafted.

Am I missing some kind of running gag when people say Manziel is like 175-180 lbs because he's listed at 210.

You still used the words "fraud" and "exposed" unironically when referring to college football so I'm pretty sure you're a massive tool

What are the general thoughts on Rakeem Cato being an NFL prospect, if there are any at all? The NFL needs a name like Rakeem Cato among its quarterbacks, they're nowhere near as high-level as they could be.

I have a personal bias for Chuckie Keeton but Kolton Browning is pretty fantastic too. His name is practically two guns, for Gods sake!

The Niners did this last year with Marquies Gray before he was poached off their practice squad by the Browns. Granted, it was as a UDFA and not a late round pick, but the Niners clearly don't take their QB depth particularly seriously anyway and they have a billion late round picks so I wouldn't be surprised to see them take a shot, especially if Kap plays hardball with his contract negotiations.

Are you saying the 9ers aren't taking McLeod Bethel-Thompson seriously as their third string QB, while hogging him to themselves and not letting his majesty spread to other teams?

You bastards.

Chuckie Keeton is the best QB name, a hard C/K in both names, "Keeton'd" has potential as a verb, and I would not think twice about seeing "Charles Keeton" in the sign-in book of a country club.

The Steelers don't trade in the first round, they just let dumber teams in front of them make bad picks.

For some reason I remember them taking Limas Sweed in the first round but no they were not that stupid, they just took him in the second.

It's entirely tongue in cheek you loving baby so lol

Edit : And just because you aren't aware of something or haven't heard of something doesn't really mean anything, sport. A simple google search would show you articles from 2011 where Wake is called kraken. It got brought up in a pre game thing before Miami played Carolina.

I'm pretty sure fiz and I talked about it back when it was new. I remember Carolina fans coming into a dolphins forum making pretty good jokes like "when Greg hardy's kraken farts it creates a Wake" and stuff like that. It's a fun little thing.

Also :laffo: at Larry, Curly, and Moe in the middle tripping over each other. Totally a real life defense. Frankly, I'm more concerned about Manziels Schiavo-esque predisposition to finding his way into situations where he will get brain damage than I am impressed by "it." I'm sure the field will be really slow for him when his brain is leaking out his ear after attempting some bullshit that Patrick Willis sniffs out. I agree he has talent, but whether or not he can play at an NFL level is far from the only concern about him.

this is seriously what I see 99% of the time anyone talks about mobile quarterbacks here, how they're all gonna get murdered the second they leave the pocket because uh, I guess it happened to Colt McCoy (who got James Harrison'd) and Pat White (who got destroyed in a freak hit)?
